The power of a play can抰 be underestimated. They can entertain you with a great comedy, leaving your sides aching from laughing so much and so hard. They can capture you up in a whirlwind of jollity with a colorful musical. Often, they can thrill you with a mystery whodunit, or stimulate your mind with a moving drama.
But in all instances, the power of the theater is to transport you, sometimes across the world, often across time. 揝hipwrecked!?is a masterwork in that respect, being a brilliant, light fantasy that revels in the many colorful exploits of a would-be hero named Louis de Rougemont. Not at all a hero by nature, he finds himself thrust into a series of unusual predicaments on the high seas that force him into the uncomfortable role, often with amusing results.
In this delightful story that抯 fit for the entire family, a ne抏r do well (Rougemont) is shipwrecked on an island. He抯 a teller of tall tales, so you抮e never really sure if what you抮e being told is true or not梑ut it is exciting and enjoyable, regardless of its veracity. At one point, he has to fight of a giant octopus. At another, he抯 pursued by unsavory characters. In still another, his loyal pooch comes to his aide.
It抯 the kind of story you抣l find endearing and thrilling at the same time, and that you can watch with your children and give them exposure to the theater. This in particular is an important role that fantasy stories on stage fulfill. As soon as they抮e old enough to behave themselves properly in a theater, children should be exposed to it so that they develop a life-long appreciation for the art form and the stories told through it. This could be the play that inspires them to go on and explore acting, directing or scriptwriting, perhaps setting them up in life to enjoy a life of the theater.
